Ever so quietly, Israel is showing the world how it’s done. Again. No we aren’t referring to microprocessors, nanotechnology or world class academic research. We’re talking about “Hey hey, ho ho, something something has gotta go,” protesting.
Countries across the Arab world have been “protesting” against their brutal dictators since the spring. The media has so romanticized the protests they’ve renamed a season after them -- the “Arab Spring.” The Irish are of course furious. They don’t know what they’re going to do with three million tonnes of now useless soap (yes, that’s an Irish Spring joke).
But what the media isn’t telling you is that these Arab protests aren’t really that romantic, unless you’re into that sort of thing. And the Israeli protests? No violence, no looting, no rape, no barbarism, no torture, no arrests and charges. It’s practically a candlelight dinner.
Skeptical? Don’t take our word for it. Take a look at the pictures below:
Remember the romantic protests in Egypt? Freedom square and all of that? Well here are a group of Egyptians marching “peacefully,” lighting up for the cause of freedom.
Israel
Israelis on the other hand are protesting high living costs in Israel. They are doing so by erecting tents around the country. And sleeping in them. In their sleeping bags. Worst case scenario: they may be telling each other ghost stories.
